Description	This lecture teaches the theoretical background to the main techniques in modern genetics. Some applications are also discussed. After a short introduction on general concepts and definitions, students will learn how to localize genes and how to generate mutants. This lecture will also present the design of forward genetic screens, the reverse genetics approach, the design of CRISPR-mediated gene editing, the use of sequence databases. This course is aimed at students who are interested in pursuing their education on model organisms such as yeast, mouse, Drosophila, C. elegans and Arabidopsis.
